Horrible Elevator Encounter


A quick little story for your Friday amusement.


Yesterday I was headed to an HR professional development lunch that meets every month. I was wearing the safari skirt and a black top, big-ass-jason(coworker)-would-say-don't-f-with-me-sunglasses, rocking my gorgeous green bag, legs-for-days (as much as you can being 5 feet tall) in my favorite wedges, and generally looking like a woman on a mission. I sign it to the building and head to the elevator bank where I holler for a guy who just got in to hold the door. The following conversation resulted:


"What's goin' on on the 7th floor?"

"A HR professional development lunch"

"Oh really? And you belong to this?"

"Yes"

"Maybe I should come develop myself with you"


O. M. G.


Did that really just come out of your mouth sir. And we are not talking about some eligible bachelor type who I would have accepted and after work drink invitation from. We are talking about someone who most likely had children and no business saying such a comment. Never mind the fact that it was sleazy, slimy, and so NOT the way to woo me.


So my own business version of a Greys Anatomy elevator scene...fail.
